"Mission Accomplished: Virtual Residency Project" Exhibition
This event has ended.
At Location One
Media: Video installation, Digital, Other
Virtual collaboration at Location One uses newest media to confront Presidential campaign. A satirist from Berlin, a metaverse scholar from Tokyo and an artist from New York create joint work – without meeting in person.
Can three complete strangers – from different continents, cultures and creative disciplines – collaborate from afar to create a forceful artistic statement about a political event?
They can. They have. Location One presents Mission Accomplished, a virtual-residency collaboration of Hidenori Watanave, Susanne Berkenheger, and Andy Deck. Their work, prepared without ever meeting face-to-face, uses Google Earth, Second Life, wikis and blog technologies – not to mention old-fashioned hand-printed Agitprop posters – to address the forthcoming U.S. Presidential election.
Virtual audiences will be able to view and participate in the work at http://location1.org/missionaccomplished.
